Delicious Pineapple Cookies Recipe - Easy & Tasty

Ingredients

Servings:
36
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup mashed ripe pineapple (drained)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (optional, walnuts or pecans)
  • 1 cup coconut flakes (optional)
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

9 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Make sure to preheat for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar

    In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

    Use an electric mixer for best results.
  3. Add Egg and Vanilla

    Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

    Ensure egg is at room temperature for better mixing.
  4. Mix in Pineapple

    Stir in the mashed pineapple until evenly distributed.

    Make sure the pineapple is well-drained to avoid excess moisture.
  5. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

    Sifting the flour helps to prevent lumps.
  6. Combine Mixtures

    Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

    Do not overmix to keep the cookies tender.
  7. Add Nuts and Coconut

    If using, fold in the chopped nuts and coconut flakes.

    Adjust the amount based on personal preference.
  8. Scoop and Bake

    Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Leave space between cookies as they will spread.
  9. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until edges are golden.

    Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring.
